Presidential Preference and Prophecies.

Interviews with nearly a hundred
members of congress upon questions that
will come before that body this winter
have been published in the Washington
Post. Incidentally the presidential elec.
ton of next year is touched upon.
Not single doubt is expressed by eth
er democrats or Republicans asto the re.
nomination of President Cleveland, and
the democrats are certain Of his election.
The unanimous sentiment is that the
democratic candidate for vicepresident
must come from the west. The Indiana
congressman favor Governor Gray. Mr..
Villas has some friends in Texas. The
Illinois delegation is divided between
Black and Stevenson, while Mr. Blanch.
ard of Louisiana, regards Cleveland and
Voorhees, as an invincible ticket.
The republican congressman usually
favor Mr.. Blaine, although the Ohio
representatives mention Mr.. Sherman as
a very likely choice Of the party. Rep
resentative Cannon, of Illinois, who was
chairman of the judiciary committee
when the republicans controlled the
house thinks Mr.. Blaine could carry his
State better than any body else, but he
says that unless the republican candidate
can carry New York the party will be
defeated.

Startled by Negro Ambition.

ATLANTA, GA, November 29.-The
prominent recognition given the negroes
during the prohibition campaign has
inspired their leaders to essay roles OF
more distinction in local politics. They
hearkened to the orators of the respect
i've sides, who took occasion to impress
them with the Importance of their posi-
tion, and before the question has been
officially settled several negroes have
announced themselves as candidates for
the city council.
This is but the outgrowth of the assu-
RANGES given them by the Anti-Prohlbi-
,tionists in return for their support of the
"wet" ballot; at least this is what the
"Prohibs" are claiming. The movement
has created considerable feeling among
the white people and especially among
the Prohibitionists, who attribute this
extraordinary step on the part OF the
negroes to the encouragement given them
by The "Antis"
The negroes will vote solidly for the
candidates Of their color, and it would
not he surprising to see one, at least,
elected to the city council, which is com
poaed of but six members.-New York

Tho Sons of Their Fathers.

A gentleman who has long been q resi-
dent of Maine and New Hampshire was
speaking the other day about the degen-
eracy of the young men in those states.
He went back over the whole history of
that section and spoke about the sturdy
life of the pioneers and their independence
of everybody and everything. 1t was
amid such surroundings that Nathaniel
Hawthorne grew up in Maine and Daniel
Webster in New Hampshire. Hawthorne
was from Bowdoin college and Webster
was from Dartmouth college. Each of
these institutions has made the exploits of
its notable son part of its stock in trade.
But my friend declares that in the case of
both Webster and Hawthorne it was not
the institution of learning but the early
surroundings that made each man what
he was. The third generation, the sons
of these two and other distinguished men,
seems to have subsided completely except
in the case of Julian Hawthorne. The
study is an interesting one and it might
be extended to other parts of the country.
For instance, Joshua NJ. Giddings and
Benjamin +. Wade were sons of pioneers
in Ohio, but no one ever hears of their
sons in these days.-New York Graphic.

Recruits for college Societies

New members are chosen from the in
coming class at the time of the entrance
examinations in spring and fall, and the
campaign as the annual struggle for
recruits is called, often becomes very ex-
citing. Every effort is made to obtain
previous information in regard to desira-
BILE men and to bring favorable influences
to bear upon them. This plan often sue
ceeds, and occasionally desirable men are
secured before rival societies have even
seen them; As rule, however, election
is the result of work at Campaign time.
When a society man sees a promising
looking freshman going to examination OF,
on the way to his room, he forthwith but
tonholes him, and before releasing him
makes an appointment for the evening.
Calling for him at the appointed time and
place, the upper classman escorts him to
the society parlors. Here are gathered
most of the members, and for half an hour
the tired candidate is talked to, joked with
and sung to, and during all keenly exam
ined. He is then borne away to repeat the
ordeal elsewhere If as the result Of sew
eral such interviews he is approved, he is
asked to pledge" that is, to promise to
join the society.
If all goes well, he is initiated five or
six weeks after the beginning of the fall
term, with such accompaniment of prac-
tical jokes as may seem suited to his case.
AS rule, all the societies initiate on the
same night, in accordance with previous
understanding, and at such times the va
rious parts of the village. offer very anus
ing Pantomimes in the way Of tree climb
ing, barrel rolling and other such gym
nastics, all performed blindfolded and
amid perfect silence. The buffoonery Of
Initiation night must not, however, be
taken as indications of the character of
Amherst societies. Contrary to what
might be expected, the strongest infu-
ences toward industry and morality are
those exerted by the Greek letter societies.
Lazy members are stimulated to work for
honors, wild fellows are made to behave,
and erring ones are punished with Sc
verify from which the faculty would
shrink. Capital punishment in society
jurisprudence is expulsion from the fra
ternity, which is not only virtual expul
sion from college, but barrier to success
in all other colleges where the Greeks are
prominent.-R. S. Rounds in Lippin-
colts.

In bluest dress is still enhancing,

And now how fast is winter gaining,

And whisper. "Youth had fled"
Vague shadows Of the past close round me,
Sorrow outlived again hath bound me

Geographical Haziness.

A surprising ignorance in geographical
matters prevails even among people of Gull
tire. Many examples of this have been
lately collected by Col. Sir Charles War
rem. In one case On educated surveyor
could not free himself of the idea that
Paris was north of London, and another
located the west end of London toward the
eastern coast. Out of thirty well in
structed men, from IS to 20 years
old, about eighteen were under
the impression that while the sun rises in
the east, the stars rise in the west.--Ar.
